Warchild: Pawn: The Warchild Series, Book 1

The world ended long before Caroline Mathers was born, but that doesn't mean life stops for the 14-year-old army scout for the People's Republic of Virginia. With a civil war brewing on the horizon, she slinks through the forests surrounding her encampment, monitoring the woods for nomadic bands of criminals, all while keeping a watchful eye on her dangerous northern enemies from the Democratic Alliance.
